West Ham midfielder Ravel Morrison has been cleared of all charges of
assaulting his ex-girlfriend and her mother. The 21-year-old was accused of
hitting Reah Mansoor, 19, and her mother, Parveen Mansoor, 39, after a night
out at a nightclub in his home city of Manchester last July 24. He was due
to go on trial at Manchester Crown Court later this month but the charges
were dropped by the prosecution on Thursday and Morrison, who was not in
court, was found not guilty. Guy Mathieson, prosecuting, told the court the
charges had been withdrawn after Morrison's defence team recovered CCTV
footage of the first alleged assault outside the One Central nightclub, in
Manchester city centre. It showed that Morrison had not hit his ex, as was
alleged, and she had "slumped" to the floor on her own. The ex-girlfriend
also withdrew her statement alleging Morrison later assaulted her outside
her home when he dropped her off and there was "reluctance" from her mother
to proceed with the alleged assault on her. All three charges of assault
were withdrawn.

West Ham United player Ravel Morrison has been cleared of attacking his
ex-girlfriend and her mother, reports Manchester Evening News.
The Manchester United academy product was accused of assaulting Rhea
Mansoor, then 19, and her mother Parveen Mansoor, then 39, last July.
Morrison was due to go on trial on January 26, facing charges of actual
bodily harm and assault by beating against Rhea Mansoor, and assault by
beating against her mother. But, at a Manchester Crown Court hearing, which
Mr Morrison did not attend, prosecutor Guy Mathieson revealed the charges
were not being pursued after CCTV contradicted the account. Verdicts of 'not
guilty' were formally recorded on the direction of Judge David Stockdale QC.
Morrison was arrested in the early hours of July 27 following reports that
Rhea Mansoor, 19, had been assaulted outside a nightclub in Manchester city
centre and at an address in Salford. Her 39-year-old mother also claimed she
had been attacked. Mr Morrison was accused of harassing Reah Mansoor over a
four-and-a-half year period, by threatening to throw 'acid in her face and
to pay £10,000 to have her murdered' but that charge was dropped in November
and a formal verdict of 'not guilty' was entered. The talented midfielder
has been capped at international level. He moved to West Ham from Manchester
United in 2012.
